The Tossers to Headline the 2nd Annual Pocono Irish-American Festival!

One of the first and most enduring bands on the Celtic punk underground, Chicago's The Tossers mix the attitude and swagger of punk rock with a muscular but respectful approximation of Irish Traditional folk music.  Formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1993 by Anthony "T" Duggins, the group's lead singer and mandolin player, The Tossers developed a reputation for their storming live show and busy touring schedule and they infuenced similarly minded bands such as the Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly.

The Tossers released The Valley of the Shadow of Death (2005), Agony (2007), Gloatin' and Showboatin': Live on St. Patrick's Day (2008), On a Fine Spring Evening (2008), The Emerald City (2013) and Smash the Windows (2017) with Victory Records.

The PIAC is happy to welcome the Bogside Rogues!
​
Performing for over 20 years, the veteran Irish rock group, Bogside Rogues, is based in the Philadelphia area in the Mid Atlantic United States and is known for an upbeat sound while maintaining their traditional roots.  Drawing from the varied experience of its members, the band performs a variety of Irish and Celtic styles including ballads, rebel songs, traditional dance music (Ceili) and contemporary Irish Songs.  Featuring Accordion/Tin Whistle, Guitar, Bass and Drums, each of the band's members came from different Celtic music backgrounds to form a striking live sound that has won over audiences, wherever they go, and inspired many other musicians to take up instruments in order to cotinue the tradition. 
The Galway Girls return to the stage at the PIAC 2nd Annual Irish American Festival!
​
The Galway Girls are a multi-instrumental Celtic trio with a mission to keep Irish traditions alive.  They sing and play memorable arrangements of everything from traditional Irish folk songs to modern hits from U2 and The Cranberries.  Whether performing at a concert, a wedding, a funeral, or a pub, they create a warm, welcoming environment where everyone feels like family.  Audiences will come away feeling enriched, inspired, and a little more connected to their Irish heritage.  After all...everyone's a little Irish.
